lyrics

The walls came crumbling all around
I want to keep going but everyone let me down

I knew from the beginning that you all lost your heart
Time for you to move on and become a adult
The dream is dead but I don't care
I'll keep moving forward, I just don't know where

So much sacrifice for all those years
Just to let it end for no one to hear
Standing at the pass, which direction will it be?
The path that leads to nowhere or the one that sets me free

I'll keep on sailing, floating right along
Another empty bottle another unheard song
Now that their gone and I'm still here
I'll write another song and take a look into the mirror


A BETTER WAY

I work this 9 to 5
I drink to stay alive
Pass out on the floor
I live day to day and not a day more

There must be a better way
But I got all the rent and bills to pay
Live and die with a drink in hand
Dreaming of the road and distant lands

Going through the motions just to stay on top
God knows that's not what I really want
But I'll just grab another beer
Just a few more until the end is here

Waiting for the future I was destined for
I guess I'll wait just a little bit more
36 years have passed me by
How many left before I die?
